From the Hillary machine’s favorite mouthpiece, the New York Times:
Bill Clinton Says His Wife Took the Rap on Health Care
By JEFF ZELENY
November 9, 2007
ALBIA, Iowa, Nov. 8 — Former President Bill Clinton said Thursday that he should receive more blame than his wife for the failed attempt to revamp the nation’s health care system more than a decade ago.
“You know how much she cares about this,” Mr. Clinton told an audience in Glenwood, Iowa, according to an account on MSNBC. “She has taken the rap for some of the problems we had with health care the last time that were far more my fault than hers.” …
As he campaigned here Thursday, Senator Barack Obama of Illinois said Mrs. Clinton could not claim credit for trying to overhaul health care if she did not accept any of the blame.
“All I know is that part of the record she’s running on is having worked on health care,” he said, “so it’s kind of hard to gauge if one of her claims is to have experience in this issue to then suggest that somehow she doesn’t have anything to do with the fact that it didn’t work.” …
We noted this new tactic the first time it was floated back in September.
And we ask the same question we asked then again now. If Hillary didn’t handle Healthcare, what on earth has she ever run — besides her mouth?
Oh,yeah, she also managed Bill’s bimbo eruptions. Even to the point of illegally eavesdropping on private telephone calls.
But when you think of it, wasn’t that an even more spectacular failure?
But sure, she will be a highly competent President of the United States.
After all, she has watched her husband do it.

Wow, Mr. Hillary taking the blame for something. This is a first. But how many days until this morphs into the mean old republicans stopped her instead of being his fault?

And they promise us the proof which sadly won’t be released until 2012 (which will then be pushed back until at least Jan 22, 2013 - which I predict will be the day Msssss Clinton declares herself El Presidente for Life). . . and then she actually is the cause of the start of WWIII when the Muslims attempt to rise up and turn this not into a socialistic failure under the Goddess of the World, but rather another part of the Islamic Caliphate and of course those like me and mine rise up to eradicate both scourges of humanity.
And of course, all are ignoring that if she isn’t at fault for the Hillary-care debacle - exactly what experience does she have? 7 years of ‘work’ as a Senator who has only submitted 20 bills, 15 of which were fluff resolutions, many are co-sponsored - isn’t exactly the depth of Leadership that I want for someone running for POTUS. 7 years as a Lawyer and about 17 years (ARK & US) as First Lady. So most of her experience, is like mine - volunteer work.
Hasn’t gotten me a job - why should it get her POTUS?

Top picture caption… Clinton: “wait… this baby is who’s?!!”
The look in the kid’s eyes looking back at mom says he is racking up the therapy bill charges he is going to sue her for.

Ya, sure Bill, we believe you…like hell we believe you! What I truly can’t believe is how the Clintons get away with this kind of BS again and again and again. Hopefully people will wake up now that Shillery is running for POTUS. What a truly horrifying prospect to contemplate!
And P.S., reading “Hell to Pay” should convince anyone that Hillery herself, not Bill, was indeed responsible for the “Hillerycare” debacle.
